“We’ll have lots of fun, insulting the rich”.
The chauffeur 🤝 Branson from
character Downton Abbey
Comrade Gregory La Cava did it again. If you want to see Ginger Rogers as a disillusioned working class girl criticizing and making fun of rich people for over an hour this is it. Walter Connolly is great but I wish the romance aspect would’ve landed better. Still, pretty enjoyable
